Satirical website imagines 'hijacking' to be Uber's next luxury service

A satirical website 'The Onion' has imagined that Uber's next luxury service will be "hijacking."

In 'The Onion's' video, a faux newscast introduces Uber's newest high-end car service, Uber Seize, as a luxury option that allows users to stop and hijack nearby vehicles, the Verge reported.

An actor playing a senior developer at Uber, which made its fair share of questionable decisions from threatening journalists to sabotaging Lyft to launching in cities illegally, sounds like he could be the real thing: "Our mission at Uber is to let you take complete control of your transportation," until he doesn't: "We make sure every one of our drivers can be carjacked at any time, without warning.
